Cell Phone vs Brush Hog

Tweet

For those of you who may not know, a brush-hog is a large heavy duty mower blade that you put behind a tractor. It is used to mow large areas and heavy brush that a regular mower just can't handle. Hubby uses his brush-hog to mow the front acre of our property. After hubby came in from mowing he noticed that his cell phone was not in the holster that he keeps hooked onto his pants. I like the fact that he keeps his cell phone with him while he is brush-hogging in case something happens, he can call me for help. Of course, there is always the possibility of it falling off and getting lost. Well, that exact thing happened, he couldn't find his cell phone. I called his phone and it went directly to voice-mail. This was not a good sign! We got on the golf cart and drove to the front of the property. The grass and wildflowers had gotten so tall that it could have been baled for hay! We drove around, hoping that we would spot it without having to dig through all the grass. After only about 10 minutes, hubby spotted something in the grass. It was a part of his phone. We dug around in the dead grass and found the rest of it in about 10 pieces. Luckily, he had insurance on his phone, although it still cost him $149. to have it replaced. From now on, he is going to have to find a better place to keep his cell phone while he is brush-hogging!
